Happy New Year

Our new year was uneventful. I did manage to stay awake until midnight! That hasn't happened in a few years.

We've been busy since Christmas. We came home from Gasburg for 2 days (long enough to do laundry) and went to Yorktown for a few days. After coming home from there, I made the long drive to Eden to spend a few days with both sets of grandparents. Tiffy and her friend Shannon met me up there and we celebrated New Year's Eve with Grandmom and Granddad. We all ate WAY too much and then crashed at 12:01. :) Shannon brought her Wii Fit and we all had fun trying it out. It was more fun watching everyone else trying to hula hoop. Joshua didn't like it when I hula hooped. We did a little shopping in Martinsville and then I went back to Eden for the night. Grandma and I lounged around most of the day and she made my favorite for dinner! :) YUMMMMY! Aunt Brenda and Emily came by to visit for a few minutes. It was good to see them. Emily is getting so grown up! She's such a beautiful young woman. I came home Saturday and David and I spent the evening at the grocery store. Ugh. I hate going to the grocery store.

We had a check-up at the OBGYN today. Didn't do much, pricked my finger (owie!) and listenend Joshua's heart beat again. Nice and strong! In the 150s and the midwife said everything sounded really good. I can't believe we're 21 weeks already! It's been fun feeling him move more and more. David was listening to Joshua's heart beat with the stethescope the other night and all of a sudden, he heard a loud thump. It was Joshua poking back! :) We just sat there and watched him kick around in there. It's so weird to see my belly move around. It'll be even crazier the bigger he gets. Speaking of bigger, here's a pic of the baby bump.

I went and got my books for school today. I'm not very excited about starting back again. Our winter break is just long enough for me to get good and lazy and happy being home. I only have 2 classes this semester so hopefully I won't be so stressed that I go into early labor! ;) I have the second part of my LAST anatomy!!! and Chemistry. I took Chemistry in high school but we never did much and I certainly don't remember any of it! I might be looking for a tutor soon.

Oh, here's a picture of Joshua's Poppa and Grammy proudly displaying their t-shirts. :)
